Well, I've never let the fact that not a single person is paying attention to my thread stop me before, so onward we move...

'The Left Arm of God's' playing career on Topps cards ran from 1955 to 1966 (1967 Leaders cards don't count), so a total of 12 seasons, and 8 of those years saw his cards featuring the darling mug of the little boy that Mrs. Koufax loved so much. That is 66.666666% (two thirds) of the total!!

It wasn't until the 7th year of his Topps run that he finally had a non-headshot design (1961). He is clearly the new frontrunner.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
